The volume of liquid passing through a nozzle (also called the nozzle’s capacity) is typically measured in liters per minute. Flow rate is affected by liquid pressure and other factors, including the specific gravity and viscosity of the liquid being sprayed.

Liquid Flow Rate

Liquid Pressure

Specific gravity is the ratio of the density of a fluid compared to the density of water. It must be considered to properly calculate flow rate. 

 **Alternatively**, if you don't know the specific gravity you may select the **Liquid Type** from a list of commonly-sprayed liquids and temperatures.

### Liquid Type

 The type of liquid sprayed and its temperature affects the specific gravity of the liquid and in turn affects the flow rate. The default liquid is water, with a specific gravity of 1.

Specific Gravity

The angle of the spray pattern as it emerges from the nozzle orifice, measured in degrees. Narrower spray angles provide less coverage of the sprayed surface. Wider spray angles provide greater coverage of the sprayed surface. Solid stream nozzles have a 0° spray angle.

VeeJet® Flat Spray And Solid Stream Nozzles - Medium Flow

Standard flat spray nozzles offer a tapered-edge spray pattern up to 110° that provides even coverage when multiple nozzles are used side-by-side in a header or manifold. Some varieties are available with an integral strainer.

Standard Flat Spray Nozzles

* Flat spray nozzles are ideal for use in spray headers or manifolds. They produce a fan-type, tapered-edge spray pattern to ensure even coverage when multiple nozzles are used in a series
* Solid stream (0° spray angle) available to achieve highest impact of any nozzle type
* Consistent performance over the industry's largest range of flow rates and pressures
* Some models feature an integral strainer
* High pressure/high impact versions available
* Quick-connect versions available to speed maintenance and installation
